Like most heroes that first see light in comic books, V is a mysterious character. In this vision of post-nuclear holocaust Britain that gave rise to a tyrannical form of government, V is the vigilante whose acts have earned him the title of terrorist. For someone accustomed to a lot of action in a sci-fi/comic-book-based movie, the pacing of this one is rather slow as the movie tends to examine the psyche of the hero more than move the viewer along a straight story line. I'm not complaining though, as this treatment is apt for the character, who is more a romantic hero rather than the rogue type.
I must say though that the costume of V must have worked better in the comic books. In this movie, I find the wig a bit funny - almost annoying, but more on the funny side.
